Agree that the dem party has shifted far left, especially recently. I haven’t shifted with them. I believe in 2 genders and think Antifa and BLM are both terror groups.
That would make you a Republican. Wake up already.

Just poking a bit at the libertarian angle.
You didn't say he moved left, and I didn't say you moved right. The extremes are leaving anything in the middle partyless.
That's the way I interpreted the chart.
My opinion, but I think even the far right from the 80s have moved closer to the middle. I also think the extreme move for the left has caused those middle who lean Republican to move towards the right.
Your 60s hippie liberal hated the man and protected free speech. Now the 2019 liberal hates free speech wants the man to run our lives.
John Wick.... “He’s not the boogeyman. He’s the man you send to kill the boogeyman.”I actually hope a civil war starts because I'd do more damage than Rambo and John Wick combined

You implied it was Trump requesting it.
I think it was dumb for whomever to request that.
I mean, Trump is the CIC of the armed forces. So either it came from him, or his subordinates don’t respect him and made the call on their own. Neither is great.
The mainstream has shifted from its traditional place right of center to left of center in that timeframe. The accompanying counter-culture has completely flipped along with it, instead of peace and love stoner hippies being a loud contrarian 15% it’s the traditionalist culture warriors. An angsty teen in 1972 was smoking weed and chanting at anti war rallies. Same angsty teen in 2019 is an edgelord smoking weed and railing against “incompetent” women ruining Call of Duty. The pendulum of culture swings back and forth, where it happens to find itself at the moment isn’t the problem. The problem is we’ve gotten more sophisticated with marketing and it’s more profitable to have a dedicated core of true believers that are behind you ideologically and monetarily than trying to pull in everyone with a bland mass appeal. Look at advertising campaigns these days, companies would rather take a stand on an issue and have 35% of the population buy their product just because of that stand than remain silent and hope not to alienate anyone. Both parties are looking to rally their base rather than reach across the aisle. And with only 40% of the country voting that’s what wins elections, which side can turn out more of their hardcore 25%.My opinion, but I think even the far right from the 80s have moved closer to the middle. I also think the extreme move for the left has caused those middle who lean Republican to move towards the right.

How expensive is the penis enlargement surgery? And is learning to speak jive difficult? I'm thinking of making the switch as well.Yes... but I voluntarily live in a culture not my own and have fully assimilated to it and adopted it.
I also identify as black.
You don't give a shit about the media. Yeah, we heard you the first hundred times you posted that. Most of us feel like the media and what they report is pretty important to the overall fabric of the country. If you don't care, then don't comment on the subject. It's so simple even a canuck can do it.Honestly I don’t pay much attention to the media. 90% of what I consume via television, internet, and radio is sports. The rest is a mix of porn and streaming movies/series. If you’re hung up on the media, maybe you should watch something else.
It just seems more divisive because the political junkies and wanabees wont STFU. The internet lets them blab all day long and the media eat it up for $$$. 95% of Americans don't pay any attention to and don't give a shit about any of the bullshit posted on here. All they care about is making some money and smoking some weed.I will admit that I have no clue what the far right in the 80s stood for. I was an adolescent in Canada then, and all I cared about was girls and hockey.
It does seem to me that things have gotten a lot more divisive. Maybe that’s me being naive, but I don’t remember this much vitriol during the Clinton and W presidencies. It could be that social media has exacerbated things and made opinions more accessible.
He's either bi-polar or he's just trying too hard to look cool. I'm leaning towards the latter, based on how he loves bragging about his money.I don't get it. You use to be a decent poster. Now it's like you are fuzz or RQ what happened?
Hmmm, how do they know that you don’t subscribe to that channel or how many people watched any particular program? Advertising rates are based on that info.
That describes how I do it also. I never watch networks or the crazy lefty cable shows. I am watching Fox News Network less and less. Say maybe 2 or 3 hours a week. TopsThey may know which cable package i subscribe to but not what i actually watch. out of a 100+ channels i only watch a select few and rarely anything on the networks except golf and college basketball.
Mainly discovery, history, cooking shows, old movies. i get most news on radio unless there’s a particular incident i’m following.
Nah. Too many commercials. I'd rather DVR it & start when live is in 4Q. I catch up so I can take 5 minutes to watch last 30 sec live.Here’s the point. We gripe and bitch at each other on here, but I’d bet dollars to donuts that if your threw us all in a bar together, we’d all have a grand old time. I’d gladly watch a UK game with anyone who posts here.
For those who don’t want to read War and Peace on a message board, here’s the condensed version:A lot of the divisiveness comes because of the shift in work ethic, respect, and morality. A large portion of the last 2 generations have lost what it is to be American and have embraced the love affair the media and others have for what they see on TV and in the news as the greener side. By that I mean other cultures in the world. The world view if you will. Problem is, the real world view is not what is being painted. Go live in these countries for a while and you would see. Many of these cultures are starting to feel the pressure of their mistakes into liberal policies and are revolting against it.
The entitlement culture has also been a thorn in the side of these countries and ours as well. Many Americans want instant comfort in their financial standing without the hard work and sacrifice sometimes needed to get there. Many older people in this country feel this is a burden on us and are fighting it tooth and nail.
Morality is also another issue we have which helps divide our peoples because of the difference in what we perceive as moral. I will use the most glaring example of today to prove the point, abortion. On one side you have those who feel human life (innocent life) begins upon conception and should be protected but, are for the death penalty for violent criminals. The other side believes that it is not human until it is fully formed or born. That and it should be the woman's decision whether to abort/kill (it is what is being done) because it is her body. In the next breath these same people will protect the life of violent criminals because it is inhumane to put them to death.
All of this for me centers around respect. Many today do not respect anything other than what is effecting their lives. The hard work that earlier Americans (Yes all Americans from slaves to Indians and others who were wrongly mistreated) did to build this great country. No system is perfect but, our way of governance and capitalistic view is what put us on top and kept us there for many years. It is only in recent years (decades of bad policies) that we started to see things waiver. We have lost the respect of what all of those before us sacrificed to make us what we are, Americans.
This was just an opinion piece of an old soldier who loves this country dearly and am a nationalist pure and simple. Don't care how the nationalist label sounds, the definition of nationalist in today's culture is wrong.
For those who don’t want to read War and Peace on a message board, here’s the condensed version:
Get off my porch.
They know exactly what you watch. How do you think Google knows exactly which ads to blast you with when you watch pornhub. Because your cable company sells them your viewing history. All modern cable uses SDV to get you matched with what you choose, this easily let's them know and log everything you do. With digital cable they can target specific ads to individual viewers or just smaller market areas with ATP. Europe they can't use this info, in the US they can do whatever the **** they want cause conservatives don't believe in data privacy. If you have a smart TV it also tracks and sells everything you watch unless you actually read your TOS and opted out which you didn't. All the companies say they protect this data and would never use it inappropriately, they are all lying POS. The only place you are safe from data collection is the pharmacy, HIPPA is a mean mofoThey may know which cable package i subscribe to but not what i actually watch. out of a 100+ channels i only watch a select few and rarely anything on the networks except golf and college basketball.

Well those conservatives (a misnomer at best) have lied to the American public about, well damn near everything but most of all how they ran up a quarter of a TRILLION dollars in debt last month alone. Funny how they don't speak of such matters when they are in office. The historical record about this is simply something they either ignore altogether or lied about.Lol
Those pesky conservatives. Everything is always their fault and their fault alone.
I'm down with your post but don't think I understand this part. Are you saying nationalist is defined as bad or good or something else? To me it's good & F those that think otherwise.Don't care how the nationalist label sounds, the definition of nationalist in today's culture is wrong.
What's pornhub?They know exactly what you watch. How do you think Google knows exactly which ads to blast you with when you watch pornhub.
